Men in their 50s are more satisfied with their sex lives than men in their 30s, a new study shows.

Findings from the study, published in BJU International, include:

--Men’s sexual function (sex drive, erection, ejaculation) tends to fade with age.

--Men’s sexual satisfaction peaks when men are in their 20s.

--Men in their 50s are a close second in sexual satisfaction.

In short, men reported sexual satisfaction long after the heyday of their youth had passed.

“Our results show that although men experience more problems and less sexual function as they get older, it doesn’t necessarily follow that they are less satisfied with their sex lives as a result,” says researcher Sophie Fossa, MD, PhD, in a news release.

"--Men in their 50s are a close second in sexual satisfaction."

I think they (we) just quit complaining.

That's very true, 'but the Police will pull your over no matter what speed you're going at the time. Something about impeding ability to drive.

That makes sense, at 50 the 18 year old girlfriend will be far more fun to play with than the wife going through menopause...

I guess this all goes to the Quality over Quantity arguement. The fun may not come as often these days, but when it does it is done right and appreciated.

50 is better than 30?

Is that dollars or years?

"Men in their 50s are more satisfied with their sex lives than men in their 30s, a new study shows."


Because by then a man has figured out, women are about sex-appeal, not sex, and by then his body has slowed down enough he is less physically frustrated by that reality.

Plus once you hit mid 40s - the kids leave the nest. This not only increases privacy but is removes much of the stress and time demands. The result? More energy for each other.

It must be the quiet ageism of diminished expectations.
